An Lingrong is reborn, the reorganized team is killing like crazy

Sure enough, the emperor really bought the pink plum vase, and Su Peisheng paid for it in the back. An Lingrong watched Su Peisheng give the man a few banknotes, feeling a little distressed. The item was not very practical, and it was quite expensive...

I thought to myself: The store owner must have deliberately raised the price because they saw how expensive their clothes were...

After leaving the store, I smelled a strong aroma of food after walking a few steps. Looking up, I saw a restaurant with nice decoration.

Since I didn't have dinner when I went out, it would have been fine if I hadn't encountered it, but once I did, I felt so hungry that I didn't want to walk anymore.

"Silang, are you hungry?" An Lingrong took the emperor's arm and stood beside the restaurant.

"Why not... go in and try it?" The emperor saw An Lingrong looking at him eagerly and wanted to tease her, but he changed the subject.

"Yes!" After hearing this, An Lingrong nodded vigorously towards the emperor.

"Let's go..." the emperor said as he pulled An Lingrong inside.

Su Peisheng also hurriedly followed, quickly walked to the front and found the shopkeeper to reserve a room on the second floor, and also booked the two rooms on the left and right.

As soon as it was settled, the waiter walked over and led the emperor and An Lingrong to the second floor.

"Boss, your guy is really smart." Su Peisheng said, and the shopkeeper smiled and thanked him for the compliment.

After the two of them entered and sat down, the waiter handed over the order for the dishes. The emperor wanted to let Su Peisheng take charge of the arrangements, but was stopped by An Lingrong.

"Silang, please order." An Lingrong took the menu, spread it in front of the emperor, and whispered, "This time, Silang, please order whatever you want."

After hearing this, the emperor looked at An Lingrong. An Lingrong felt that the emperor was looking at her, so she also raised her head. Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she saw the emperor looking at her with a touched expression.

Well, she was overthinking it again. She did this thinking that she would be able to order what she wanted to eat later. The emperor felt that he really loved him...

"Silang." An Lingrong smiled and pointed to the list in front of her, and the emperor came back to his senses.

"What would you like to eat, Rong'er?" the emperor asked, and moved the list in front of him towards An Lingrong.

"Your Majesty, please order first..." An Lingrong knew she should say, "Whatever Your Majesty orders, I will like it." But she held back.

What if... he took it seriously? ...

The two of them ordered the dishes they wanted, the waiter wrote them down, said "wait a moment" and left.

"This place is really nice." An Lingrong looked around the room and said.

"Quite elegant." The emperor took over the conversation and the two of them spoke in low voices.

Juqing served tea and Su Peisheng tested the poison and found no problem, then they started drinking tea.

"After dinner, would you like to have a few puffs of opium with us? I tell you, just go and ask everyone who has smoked it, and you will see who will say that it is good." Suddenly, a voice came from next door. Although the voice was not loud, it was clear enough to hear.

"What's going on?" The emperor asked, and Su Peisheng bowed and said:

"Master, please forgive me. I told the shopkeeper that we had booked the rooms on the left and right of this room, but the shopkeeper said that there were already people in the room facing west, and they were all here to eat, so it would be difficult to chase them away. I forgot to tell you, and please forgive me, Master."

Su Peisheng knelt down as he spoke, a look of panic on his face.

"Silang, please don't be angry. We are just here to have a meal today. This room is not soundproofed. We just need to be careful when we speak. It's not a big deal..." An Lingrong pulled the emperor's hand with a smile on her face, and the emperor nodded.

Su Peisheng cast a grateful look towards An Lingrong...

"I won't go. My father said that we are not allowed to touch that stuff. Anyone who dares to touch it will be beaten to death. I haven't lived enough." Another young voice came, with a nonchalant tone.

"Just this once, no one will know." This was spoken by a new voice, a little rough.

After this person finished speaking, there was silence for a moment.

“No, if my father knew about it, he would definitely beat me to death. I’m only eighteen and haven’t even touched a woman. It would be so unfair if I died…” The nonchalant voice continued, expressing refusal again.

"Then lend me some silver. I have used up the silver given by my family this month. I will return it to you when I get the silver next month." The first voice sounded, followed by a sound of toasting and clinking glasses.

"I don't have much left, just these fifty taels. I'll give it all to you. Remember to return it to me!" Then that nonchalant voice came again.

"Really there aren't any more?"

“It’s really gone…”

……

"I have to go back first. If I don't go back, my father will definitely break my legs if he finds out..."

"Your father, your father, every word he says is about your father, have you ever thought of rebelling against him?"

"You also know how powerful my father is. He really dares to beat me to death." A nonchalant voice came, and it seemed that he had already stood up.

"Okay, okay, go back now. We're going to go out and have some fun soon. You bastard, you unlucky bastard!"

The rough voice spoke again, and then the sound of a door opening and closing was heard from the other side.

"What's wrong with you? Why don't you help persuade him? If we can get him in, we won't have to worry about the money for smoking in the future." As the previous person left, a voice came from the other side.

"Of course I know, but if he doesn't want to go, we can't force him to go. His father is Feng Zichuan, and his brother is now serving the emperor. If we force him, neither our Zhu family nor our Qi family will have an easy life." A rough voice spoke, and An Lingrong looked at the emperor.

"Feng Zichuan is Feng Chi's father." The emperor said in a low voice, but An Lingrong was startled.

"There will be a beauty contest in Manchunlou tomorrow. Let's ask him out and take him there after getting him drunk. I don't believe he won't do it. How come the money in my hand is spent so quickly? Damn it!" After the man said that, the two of them started talking about random things again.

"Su Peisheng, when you go back, you should ask someone to investigate what kind of opium they are talking about. Then go to the Feng family and inform old General Feng. Cut off all ties with the Qi and Zhu families in the future. It sounds like they are not good people." The emperor spoke, his face looking much darker.

"Yes." Su Peisheng nodded in agreement.

After all the dishes were served, Su Peisheng took out the silver pieces for testing poison and checked them one by one. Only after making sure that there was no problem did the emperor and An Lingrong start eating.

The food tasted really good, but the emperor seemed a little absent-minded while eating.

After dinner, the two of them went back. On the way back, the emperor remained silent. An Lingrong sat beside him and served him, but did not dare to ask any questions.

The next day, An Lingrong had breakfast with the emperor before returning to Zhan Jing Zhai. Since yesterday, she had been thinking that the opium those people were talking about might be the same thing as the poppy that Meng Zhaoxing mentioned.

An Lingrong would not ask about the affairs of the previous dynasty. When she returned to Zhan Jingzhai, she heard about Meng Zhaoxing.

"That thing I just mentioned, is it related to that opium?" An Lingrong asked, and Meng Zhaoxing nodded.
